Freedom of Information Act
The Freedom of Information Act (FOI) gives you the right to request any information from any public authority.
The Freedom of Information Act came into force in January 2005. It provides individuals and organisations with the right to request access to our recorded information. The aim is to make us more open and accountable. It covers all recorded information held at the time of the request, regardless of how old it is. It also covers more information about the re-use of information supplied under the FOI. For more details please see our Access to Information Policy [PDF, 253Kb].
